Contextual Overview

6 And the Apostles and elders came together, for to consider of this matter. 7 And when there had ben much disputyng, Peter rose vp, and sayde vnto the: Ye men & brethren, ye knowe how that a good while ago, God did chose among vs, that the gentiles by my mouth, shoulde heare the worde of the Gospel, and beleue. 8 And God whiche knoweth the heartes, bare them witnesse, and gaue vnto them the holy ghost, euen as he dyd vnto vs: 9 And put no difference betwene vs and them, purifiyng their heartes by fayth. 10 Nowe therfore, why tempt ye God, to put on the disciples neckes, the yoke which neither our fathers nor we were able to beare? 11 But we beleue, that through the grace of the Lorde Iesu Christe, we shalbe saued, euen as they. 12 Then all the multitude was scilent, and gaue audience to Barnabas and Paul, which tolde what signes and wonders, God had shewed among the gentiles by them. 13 And when they helde their peace, Iames aunswered, saying: Men and brethren, hearken vnto me. 14 Simeon tolde, howe God at the begynnyng dyd visite, to receaue of the gentiles, a people in his name. 15 And to this agree the wordes of the prophetes, as it is written:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And to this agree the words of the prophets,.... In several of the prophecies of the Old Testament, which plainly speak of the calling of the Gentiles; though James thought it sufficient to produce only one instead of many:

as it is written; in Amos 9:11 and this is agreeably to the Jewish way of citing Scriptures, as Surenhusius observes; so it is said q, in twenty four places the priests are called Levites, and this is one of them, Ezekiel 44:15 where only one place is mentioned, instead of the twenty four.

q T. Bab. Yebamot, fol. 86, 2. & Beracot, fol. 4. 1, 2.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The words of the prophets - Amos 9:11-12. It was a very material point with them, as Jews, to inquire whether this was in accordance with the predictions of the Scriptures. The most powerful revivals of religion, and the most striking demonstrations of the divine presence, will be in accordance with the Bible, and should be tested by them. This habit was always manifested by the apostles and early Christians, and should be followed by Christians at all times. Unless a supposed work of grace accords with the Bible, and can be defended by it, it must be false, and should be opposed. Compare Isaiah 8:20.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Acts 15:15. And to this agree the words of the prophets — Peter had asserted the fact of the conversion of the Gentiles; and James shows that that fact was the fulfilment of declarations made by the prophets.
